Hm when I saw this, I thought 'I m getting this'. Then I remembered I just got BF3 and haven't had much time to play it yet. Despite all this and also having stopped playing ArmaII I think I will get it. Just not sure if it's straight away. But if I get it anyway, I might as well do it sooner than later...

Just FYI, Folk ARPS isn't going to switch-over its main sessions to ArmA 3 when the alpha comes out. However, we do plan to run a regular session (on Saturdays) to see what the new game offers, and understand how we can prepare the necessary content / stuff to make a smooth switch-over later in the year (assuming everything runs to plan with ArmA 3's release).

I kinda feel the same way. Other shooters, like Tribes and Battlefield 3, are taking up most of my time these days, but there is nothing like an old-fashioned ARMA session once in a while. After all, playing the game once a week is not really going to subtract anything from your Battlefield experience anyways, as all the rounds are just 30 minute sessions.

Yeah that's true.

I'm definitely getting ArmA 3 Alpha, the regular one. Looks pretty cool so far, even if we are limited to 12 or more weapons and 8+ vehicles on Stratis. I hope someone makes Crazy Race for it again. Also, I hope one of the first two multiplayer scenarios is Warfare 2.0.

Long time RPS reader but first time on the forums. I think that Arma 3 looks pretty sweet. I never played Arma 1 or 2 mostly because until January I hadn't had a computer for gaming in years. I think i will give it a try, but if someone wants to throw me one of their additional alpha keys that would be great.

Hi.I haven't been around for a while due to working weird shifts.A regular Arma 3 thing on Saturday sounds great,as i cant make Sunday and Tuesday anymore.Count me in!
I will be hitting the mission making again,so a A3 folk Orbat would be cool.

@kataras - hop onto the Folk ARPS Skype perma-chat (click to auto-join if logged-in to Skype) and you'll already find people with A3 Alpha; should be plenty of ad hoc sessions happening in the next few days. More announcements on FA and ArmA 3 in the FA forums.
